Anmerkungen

The Bank of Nova Scotia was one of the few Canadian chartered banks to maintain an aggressive branch expansion into the Caribbean and Central America during the early 1900s, and its note issues of this period reflect a institution operating across genuinely different monetary environments simultaneously. The American Bank Note Company in New York handled production for numerous Canadian chartered banks at this time, as domestic Canadian security printing capacity was still limited.

Chartered bank notes in Canada circulated as a parallel currency system alongside Dominion notes until the Bank of Canada's establishment in 1934 finally began displacing them. The 1903 date places this squarely in the period before the 1907 financial panic reshaped North American banking confidence.
